After over 2 years - they finally talked to me! This is a person I spoke about in a previous post “What if they won’t talk to you?” It just so happened that I was visiting the state where this person lives. It's been a while since I've tried to reach out, so I debated...
Recently I have been having many conversations with women that are struggling in their relationships, particularly in their marriages. They feel like they are no longer on the same page as their spouse. They express how much they love and care for their significant...
Today is Valentine’s Day, so I thought why not talk about love? We can all use reminders to love ourselves and others more - I know I can. I believe not loving ourselves is typically the root cause of a lot of the strife we experience in life. When you are not loving...
I was talking with a girlfriend the other day and she told me how she was waiting in line at the grocery store and started eavesdropping on a conversation two women were having in front of her. One of the women said, “Now that I am in my 40’s I really don’t care what...
I was thinking about the quote, “Misery loves company,” because there are some people in my life who feels like they are looking for company for their misery. I am working on being compassionate, but it can get difficult, at times. I believe they are good people and...
I went on a hike with a friend a couple of weeks ago. The hike is called Devils Causeway. When my girlfriend explained the hike, she said it was on her bucket list and would love it if I joined her. I immediately said, yes! I love hiking and helping my friend cross...
The other day, I was at the pet food store picking up some (more) treats for my dogs. For some reason, we run out quickly. Anyway, I am particular about the treats I get them. You see, they are my babies and I am going to make sure they are spoiled and live the best,...
Relationships - sometimes they are great and sometimes they are not so great. Are you nodding your head up and down with me? For example, they can fill us with happiness, joy, pleasure, love, excitement or sadness, grief, stress, fear, and anger - to name just a few...
Have you ever been in a situation where someone in your life will not communicate with you - no matter how hard you try? I am going through this right now. There is someone in my life that I love dearly, whom I have tried to reach out to many times, but have received...
I’m in the middle of writing a book. It is something I’ve started and stopped many times. I feel like it's time to complete it. As I was writing, it struck me how far I have come regarding my fertility journey. If you don’t know, I don’t have children. I wanted to...
I was on a video call with a group of women who identify as empaths. It was the first time we were meeting. It was a very casual, laid-back format. We started with an ice breaker, introduced ourselves, and shared experiences, books, and thoughts about being highly...
After listening to some episodes of the podcast Mortified, which features adults sharing the embarrassing things they wrote as kids. I decided to look through some of my old journals. I came across some entries from when I was in my mid-20s. It was interesting to...
Have you ever met someone and they seemed perfectly nice, cordial, and friendly when they greeted you, but something about them rubbed you the wrong way? Everyone else that meets this person thinks they are great, but not you. They haven’t said or done anything to...
Can you let it be? Or are you someone that feels the need to dig in, figure it out, and get to the root cause - so that you can understand the reason something happened or didn’t happen? I would say that I’ve been more the type of person that likes to dig into things,...
